Magnifying the Universe (Interactive Infographic)

Below is an interactive infographic developed by Number Sleuth. It let’s you see the size of the universe and the things in it. It accurately illustrates the scale of over 100 items within the observable universe ranging from galaxies to insects, nebulae and stars to molecules and atoms. See how different sized things in our universe compare to each other.

The hot points along the zoom slider allow for direct access to planets, animals, the hydrogen atom and more. I recommend you start with the atoms.
